I am a newbie in INformix 4GL programming. I need a function which converts an ascii number to its relative CHAR. Also want to know how to get the successor of a CHAR, such as returning 'B' if giving 'A'. Sorry for such simple questions. Thanks ‰ Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Share what you know.
